A member asked:
Can anal sex cause cervical cancer or does it primarily cause anal cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No cervical cancer: Anal sex is NOT a risk factor for cervical cancer. However, you should keep in mind that there are multiple infection associated, and risk to get wounds. As long as you have good hygiene and keep getting your annual check ups, you should not worry.
